The movie was made with an estimated budget of INR 85 crores including production cost and advertising cost. The movie was released in over 3700 screens throughout the India and 670 screens overseas. It is expected that the movie will recover the costs within the first week itself but what remains to be seen is whether the third franchisee of Houseful will cross the overall collection of Houseful 2 which incidentally is one of the highest grossing comedy movie ever (INR 114 crores). Houseful 3 also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Abhishek Bachchan, Nargis Fakhri, Riteish Deshmukh and Lisa Haydon.
